Justin Allgaier rode to his first NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series pole position of the 2026 season for the Andy’s Frozen Custard 340 at Texas Motor Speedway on Friday, May 1.

The event’s starting lineup was determined through a single-car, single-lap qualifying format. In this format, all 38 competitors vying for 38 starting spots cycled around Texas Motor Speedway once to post the fastest lap amongst one another. The competitor who posted the fastest single lap was awarded the pole position.

During Friday’s qualifying session, Allgaier clocked in a single qualifying lap at 188.607 mph in 28.631 seconds. The lap was enough for Allgaier and his No. 7 Roto-Rooter/JR Motorsports Chevrolet Camaro team to claim the top-starting spot for an upcoming O’Reilly event for the first time this season.

With the pole, Allgaier achieved his 13th O’Reilly career pole for his 516th series start and his first at Texas. The 2024 O’Reilly champion currently leads the 2026 driver’s standings by 105 points over Sheldon Creed as he strives to both extend his early momentum and contend for his first victory at Texas during Saturday’s main event.

Allgaier will share the front row with Brandon Jones, the latter of whom posted the second-fastest single-qualifying lap run at 188.075 mph in 28.712 seconds. Like Allgaier, Jones is still striving for his first victory at Texas. The latter is also pursuing his first victory of 2026 and first since he won at Kansas Speedway in September 2025.

Kyle Larson, who is scheduled to make his fourth and final O’Reilly start this season in the No. 88 HendrickCars.com/JR Motorsports Chevrolet Camaro entry, qualified in third place at 187.852 mph in 28.746 seconds. Larson is the reigning O’Reilly winner at Texas, where he piloted the No. 88 entry when he achieved the feat.

Ironically, Connor Zilisch, whom Larson substituted for a year ago, will share the second row with Larson. Zilisch, who is driving the No. 1 Registix/TruckClub/JR Motorsports Chevrolet Camaro entry and is making his first O’Reilly start at Texas, posted the fourth-fastest qualifying lap at 187.357 mph in 28.822 seconds.

Rookie Brent Crews is one of four competitors competing for the fourth and final $100,000 bonus of this season. He will start in fifth place and will share the third row with rookie Corey Day. Day, a Dash 4 Cash contender, achieved his first O’Reilly career victory last weekend at Talladega Superspeedway. Sheldon Creed and Sammy Smith, the remaining two Dash 4 Cash contenders, will start 11th and 15th, respectively.

Austin Hill, Jeremy Clements, Ryan Sieg and Parker Retzlaff completed the top-10 starting grid.

With 38 competitors vying for 38 starting spots, all made the main event.

Ben Rhodes scored the pole position for the 2026 SpeedyCash.com 250 at Texas Motor Speedway on Friday, May 1.

The event’s starting lineup was determined through a single-truck, single-lap qualifying format.

With the pole, Rhodes, who is in his 11th consecutive season as a full-time NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series competitor, achieved his seventh career pole position and his first of the 2026 season. He also recorded his first pole at Texas Motor Speedway and his first since the 2025 season-opening event at Daytona International Speedway.

Rhodes is currently ranked in sixth place in the 2026 driver’s standings and has recorded a pair of top-five results through the first six scheduled events. He will strive to both win for the first time at Texas and erase a 66-race deficit, with his latest victory occurring at Charlotte Motor Speedway in May 2023.

Rhodes will share the front row with teammate Jake Garcia, the latter of whom qualified with a single-qualifying lap at 184.925 mph in 29.201 seconds.

NASCAR and Coca-Cola Celebrate America’s 250th Anniversary by Honoring Military Service Members through NASCAR Heroes Pass Promotion as part of NASCAR Salutes

Selected Active-Duty Service Members and Veterans will receive Two Tickets Annually for 20 years

Charlotte, North Carolina (May 1, 2026) – NASCAR and Coca-Cola are expanding their shared commitment to the military community this May with the return of NASCAR Salutes Together with Coca-Cola, while also honoring America’s 250th anniversary through a special evolution of the program: NASCAR Salutes 250 Together with Coca-Cola.

The annual initiative recognizes and supports active duty servicemembers, veterans, military families and fallen heroes through a series of programs throughout Military Appreciation Month, including special recognition in the 600 Miles of Remembrance at the Coca-Cola 600 at Charlotte Motor Speedway on May 24 and culminating at Nashville Superspeedway on May 31.

As part of this year’s enhanced platform, NASCAR and Coca-Cola will introduce the NASCAR Heroes Pass, a fan-driven initiative designed to honor military service members in a lasting and meaningful way.

From May 1 through May 31, fans can visit NASCAR.com/Salutes to nominate a deserving active duty service member or veteran from any branch of the U.S. Armed Forces. GOVX will verify nominees to ensure authenticity and integrity of the program. A total of 250 recipients will be selected to receive a NASCAR Heroes Pass, granting them lifetime access to NASCAR races — defined as two tickets to one participating track annually for 20 years.

The program is designed to go beyond recognition by creating a lifelong connection between NASCAR and those who serve, while encouraging fan participation and storytelling throughout the month.

“For more than a decade, NASCAR Salutes has been a cornerstone of how our sport honors the military community,” said Jess Smith, Vice President of Brand at NASCAR. “With the introduction of the NASCAR Heroes Pass as part of NASCAR Salutes 250 Together with Coca-Cola, we’re deepening that commitment in a way that creates lasting impact and celebrates service for years to come.”

NASCAR Salutes Together with Coca-Cola has delivered meaningful at-track experiences for servicemembers and their families, united partners across the motorsports industry and driven critical investments in military and veteran service organizations through NASCAR Impact and other league-wide efforts. The program builds each year toward Memorial Day Weekend and the 600 Miles of Remembrance, where every NASCAR Cup Series driver takes the green flag with the name of a fallen service member displayed on their car.

“As Coca‑Cola proudly celebrates America’s 250th anniversary throughout the year, this Military Appreciation Month is especially meaningful,” said Don Rouse, Vice President of Sports & Entertainment at Coca‑Cola North America. “NASCAR Salutes Together with Coca‑Cola is a cornerstone of our partnership, and we’re honored to provide Heroes Passes to deserving servicemembers and veterans so they can experience the excitement of NASCAR for years to come.”

Honor and Remember will again collaborate with NASCAR teams to host Gold Star Families at Charlotte Motor Speedway as part of the 600 Miles of Remembrance. As a NASCAR Impact partner, the organization continues to support families who have lost loved ones in the line of duty.

NASCAR Impact will also continue its work with Sound Off, a nonprofit focused on expanding access to mental health resources for veterans and active duty servicemembers through a peer-to-peer support platform.

As part of this year’s NASCAR Salutes 250 Together with Coca-Cola program, NASCAR will:

Host at-track experiences for military members, veterans and their families, including:

– Discounted grandstand tickets for military members all season long through NASCAR MilTix Presented by GOVX. Active military and veterans can verify their status and purchase tickets by visiting NASCAR.com/miltix.

– Complimentary grandstand tickets and VIP experiences throughout May for service members from local bases, made possible by Chevrolet’s NASCAR Troops to the Track program and Vet Tix.

– The “Mobility Pit Box,” which will welcome mobility-impaired race fans and veterans at select events, continuing Toyota’s commitment to “Mobility for All.”

Bring together the motorsports industry in recognition of the military, including:

– O’Reilly Auto Parts, featuring patriotic red, white and blue windshield headers during the NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series race at Charlotte Motor Speedway.

– Craftsman, displaying red, white and blue windshield decals on all NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series entries during race weekend at Charlotte.

– Goodyear, continuing its tradition of replacing its iconic “Eagle” sidewall design with “Honor and Remember” for the Coca-Cola 600.

– Mechanix Wear, outfitting NASCAR officials with special camouflage gloves for race weekend.

Invest in veteran and military service organizations so they can continue their critical work, including:

– Sound Off

– Honor and Remember

NASCAR Salutes 250 Together with Coca-Cola represents an evolution of one of the sport’s most meaningful initiatives — bringing fans, partners and the industry together to honor service, celebrate America’s legacy and create lasting connections with the military community for years to come.

NO PURCHASE NECESSARY. Contest begins 5/1/26 and ends on 5/31/26. Open to U.S. residents, 18+. See Official Rules for eligibility and complete details: nascar.com/salutes. NASCAR, LLC, NASCAR Digital Media, LLC, and The Coca-Cola Company are not sponsors of this Contest.

Under the leadership of Tim Scheer, the brand has expanded its offering of products to now include snack sticks and ready-to-eat meats, all of which can be found online or in grocery stores throughout the country.

Scheer, a longtime NASCAR fan, believes the sport is a perfect opportunity to partner with Niece Motorsports.

Be like Biff, Do it for Dale, and Stay Saucey!”

Blues Hog will appear on the No. 45 Chevrolet Silverado driven by Ross Chastain and Landen Lewis for the remainder of the NCTS race season.

Lewis, who has made a handful of starts already this year, eyes racing with support from Blues Hog through the latter portion of the schedule.

“I’m proud to represent everyone at Blues Hog on our No. 45 Chevy,” said Lewis. “Their sauces taste incredible, and I’m looking forward to seeing what this partnership will grow into with our team in the future.”

This weekend also marks the inaugural Blues Hog BBQ Showdown at Texas Motor Speedway.

Drivers Chastain and Lewis will greet the competitors on Friday before the Truck Series race. On Saturday, Pitmasters face off for competition day. Before Sunday’s Cup Series race, awards and shares of the $25,000 prize pot will be presented on the main stage prior to driver introductions.

THE COCA-COLA COMPANY PARTNERS WITH 23XI RACING; BUBBA WALLACE REJOINS THE COCA-COLA RACING FAMILY OF DRIVERS

Partnership expands on current relationship with Coca-Cola Consolidated

Huntersville, N.C. (May 1, 2026) – The Coca-Cola Company has joined 23XI as the Exclusive Beverage Partner of Bubba Wallace and the No. 23 team. The partnership builds on a relationship that began last year with Coca-Cola Consolidated that included branding on Wallace’s No. 23 Toyota Camry XSE and engagement opportunities on and off the track.

The partnership pairs one of NASCAR’s newest teams with one of the most recognizable and longest tenured brands in NASCAR. Coca-Cola has a long history in motorsports, including over 40 years of title sponsorship of the Coca-Cola 600, one of NASCAR’s most prestigious races. Coca-Cola’s storied partnership in NASCAR also includes the Coca-Cola Racing Family, which launched in 1998. Wallace will return to the Coca-Cola Racing Family of drivers after being a member from 2018 through 2020.

To kick off the expanded collaboration, Coca-Cola will debut a co-branded paint scheme with Hardee’s on Wallace’s No. 23 Toyota Camry XSE for the upcoming NASCAR Cup Series race at Watkins Glen International on May 10th. The car will premiere as The Coca-Cola Company celebrates its 140th anniversary. The iconic beverage brand will also be featured on Wallace’s firesuits throughout the season, as well as on the No. 23 team’s uniforms and equipment.

For Wallace – who has had a strong start to the season – the partnership is a full-circle moment.

“I couldn’t be happier to be back in the Coca-Cola Racing Family,” said Wallace. “I enjoyed the work we did together in the past and look forward to again connecting with race fans as part of this program. I’m known to have an ice-cold Coca-Cola after the race, so this is the perfect partnership. Now, it’s going to be even better to share a Coke with the 23 team here at 23XI.”

“NASCAR has long been part of Coca‑Cola’s story, and welcoming Bubba Wallace back to the Coca‑Cola Racing Family through our partnership with 23XI Racing is a natural extension of that legacy,” said Don Rouse, VP of Sports & Entertainment Marketing, Coca-Cola North America. “Together, we’re connecting with fans through a program built on authenticity, shared values, and a genuine love for the sport.”

With a win at Kansas Speedway in May of 2022, Busch earned 23XI the team’s first-ever playoff berth. Tyler Reddick joined the team in 2023 to drive the No. 45 car.

Dover Motor Speedway Welcomes NASCAR Cup Series Champion Brad Keselowski for Fan-Filled Open House Ahead of All-Star Weekend at The Monster Mile

  • Dover Motor Speedway hosted hundreds of fans for a special Open House event featuring 2012 NASCAR Cup Series champion Brad Keselowski ahead of NASCAR All-Star Weekend.
  • Fans enjoyed free access to The Monster Mile, including the ability to walk the track, a live Q&A, and an autograph session with Keselowski.
  • The event helped build anticipation for NASCAR All-Star Weekend, set for May 15-17, highlighted by the longest All-Star Race in NASCAR history.

DOVER, Del. (April 30, 2026) – Dover Motor Speedway welcomed an enthusiastic crowd of hundreds of fans Thursday afternoon as 2012 NASCAR Cup Series champion Brad Keselowski headlined a special Open House event at The Monster Mile, previewing the upcoming NASCAR All-Star Weekend and kicking off the NXL Paintball Mid-Atlantic Open happening on property at Dover Motor Speedway this weekend.

Fans were invited inside the Speedway to walk the track, visit Victory Lane and participate in a live Q&A session with Keselowski on the famous Monster Monument. The Open House also coincided with the opening day of the NXL Paintball Mid-Atlantic Open, bringing a different kind of high-speed action to the Speedway. Keselowski joined in on the fun, taking part in paintball activities, including coaching a team and even shooting some paintballs at Tanner Hollis, Dover Motor Speedway’s manager of marketing.

“I did hit [Tanner] repeatedly… and he was unarmed, so I’m not sure if that was a paintball war crime,” Keselowski said with a laugh. “But I had a lot of fun.”

Afterward, the NASCAR champion and RFK Racing co-owner spent time enjoying lunch with members of the local media and took them for a hot lap in Dover Motor Speedway’s official Ford Mustang Dark Horse pace car.

“I always think the best reactions are when people say, ‘I’ll never do that again,’” Keselowski said. “That means you pushed them right to the edge a little bit.”

He then made his way over to the Monster Monument for a fan Q&A, joined by Dover Motor Speedway president and GM Mike Tatoian. Fans had the chance to ask questions to the NASCAR champion and speedway leadership ahead of NASCAR All-Star Weekend, set for May 15-17.

“It’s days like this that remind you how special this place is,” Tatoian said. “You can really feel things starting to build, and it was great to welcome fans back to The Monster Mile. There was a great atmosphere out in Victory Plaza when Brad came on stage, and it really sets the tone for what’s ahead as we get closer to All-Star Weekend.”

The event served as an early spark around the property, with fans already looking ahead to returning to The Monster Mile in just two weeks.

The 2026 NASCAR All-Star Weekend at Dover Motor Speedway will mark the first time the All-Star Race has ever been held in the Northeast. The race will feature all drivers competing in the opening two segments before a final 200-lap segment cuts the field down to 26 drivers, making it the longest All-Star Race in NASCAR history.

“When you’re a team owner and a driver, you’ve got a lot of bills to pay, so a million dollars would be really nice,” Keselowski said. “Those 350 laps are going to give the field a chance to work its way through strategy, and that final segment is going to be really important.”

NASCAR All-Star Weekend will feature the ECOSAVE 200 NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series race on Friday, May 15, the BetRivers 200 NASCAR O’Reilly Auto Parts Series race on Saturday, May 16, and the NASCAR Cup Series All-Star Race on Sunday, May 17. The event marks the 108th NASCAR Cup Series race at The Monster Mile.

With Keselowski at the center of it all, Thursday’s Open House event gave fans a free chance to experience The Monster Mile up close, setting the stage for All-Star Weekend.

“We had a lot of fun,” Keselowski said. “The paintball experience was really cool. It was my first time driving the Dark Horse… it was a blast, and it’s good to be back here with a community that supports the races.”

Thursday’s Open House brought fans together at The Monster Mile and continued to build anticipation for NASCAR All-Star Weekend on May 15-17.

NASCAR Drivers Share What Fans Can Expect at The ​​​​​​​Coca-Cola 600

Each year, ahead of the Coca-Cola 600, all six branches of the military gather to set the tone, where patriotism and racing tradition come together on Memorial Day weekend. (CMS photo)
  • NASCAR Cup Series drivers tell fans to expect a Memorial Day weekend at the Coca-Cola 600 featuring 600 miles of intense racing, powerful military tributes, and a uniquely patriotic, high-energy atmosphere
  • Fans can purchase Coca-Cola 600 weekend tickets online at www.charlottemotorspeedway.com or call 1-800-455-FANS (3267). Kids 12 and under get in for just $10 on Sunday

CONCORD, N.C. (April 30, 2026) – No place in NASCAR delivers a Memorial Day weekend experience quite like Charlotte Motor Speedway, with the Coca-Cola 600 at the center of it all. From the moment fans arrive to the final laps under the lights, it’s a full day built around atmosphere, tradition and 600 miles of nonstop action.

Ahead of Sunday’s race, NASCAR Cup Series drivers share what fans can expect when they arrive at Charlotte Motor Speedway for one of the sport’s most meaningful and memorable weekends:

Kyle Busch, No. 8, 2018 Coca-Cola 600 Winner

“I think what fans expect is obviously just a great show. Everything from the beginning to the middle to the end of that race. It’s a long race, but what’s cool about coming to the Coke 600 is you still have all of the highlights of the IndyCar race finishing up and then transitioning into the NASCAR race. You’ve got all your military service members that are there doing a show in the infield, and we’re all there to honor them and everything that they mean for us and serving for our freedom.”

Denny Hamlin, No. 11, 2022 Coca-Cola Winner

“You can ultimately see one of the best salutes to our military that you’ll see at any sporting event. I know that SM (Speedway Motorsports) and Charlotte Motor Speedway do a phenomenal job paying respects to those that paid the ultimate sacrifice, and you’ll see that on full display before the race for the Coke 600.”

Chase Briscoe, No. 19, Joe Gibbs Racing

“I think when you come to Charlotte Motor Speedway on Memorial Day weekend, you have to expect just an incredible pre-race ceremony. Whether it’s the concert or just the military doing all that they do, and then you’re going to see 600 miles and some of the best racing you’ll see all year long. That track is just aged perfectly and our cars put on incredible racing there.”

Josh Berry, No. 21, Wood Brothers Racing

“I think the coolest part of the (Coca-Cola) 600 on Memorial Day weekend is the pre-race festivities. They’re always so cool and you just get chills getting ready for that race. Obviously, it’s the longest race of the year for us, and it’s a grind, but it makes it really special when you complete all the laps.”

Bubba Wallace, No. 23, 23XI Racing

“I think the biggest thing is probably, aside from the race, a massive military presence. It’s awesome to be part of.”

Zane Smith, No. 38, Front Row Motorsports

“Just a special weekend. You get to see so much more other than racing. It’s always just great weather. A fun, fun weekend and just an unbelievable weekend honoring those who served.”

Alex Bowman, No. 48, Hendrick Motorsports

“The 600, it’s obviously super patriotic. It’s really cool to be a part of all that. Just to be able to say thank you to everybody who served, and then on the racetrack. It’s a long night. Hard to, stay perfect for 600 miles, but we try our best.”

Connor Zilisch, No. 88, Trackhouse Racing

“Charlotte (Motor Speedway) on Memorial Day weekend is a one-of-a-kind event. Everybody is patriotic and everybody’s having a good time, and it makes it fun for us, too.”

QUOTABLE

Kyle Larson, driver of the No. 5 Chevrolet, on Texas Motor Speedway: “I think if you can get your car to handle, because it’s hard to make it work well on both ends of the racetrack, but if you can get through turns one and two with speed, then you have just enough comfort to carry that speed through three and four, you can have a good day.”

Chase Elliott, driver of the No. 9 Chevrolet, on approaching Texas Motor Speedway: “I’m certainly encouraged by how we ran at [Las] Vegas [Motor Speedway]. I thought there were periods of the race [at] Kansas [Speedway] that I thought we were really respectable there as well. Certainly, needed a little bit, I thought, in both of those cases, but we were close, which was nice. Texas [Motor Speedway] has been a really tough track for me throughout its reconfiguration, but I feel like we made some small gains there the last few trips. Got a win there, weren’t the best car that day, but got a win and kept ourselves in position. I’m curious to get out there and kind of keep assessing where we are.”

William Byron, driver of the No. 24 Chevrolet, on Texas Motor Speedway: “I’m glad Texas [Motor Speedway] is after Talladega [Superspeedway] because we need a good solid weekend. I’m confident in our mile-and-a-half program, even this year with the body changes. We need a weekend like that though, where we get back to where we excel. Texas is one of the better mile-and-a-halves for our team, and I hope that shows once again.”

Alex Bowman, driver of the No. 48 Chevrolet, coming off a top five at Talladega Superspeedway and heading to Texas Motor Speedway: “Having a good finish was really good for our Ally 48 team last weekend. With how hard these guys have worked, and everything that has been thrown at them this season, they deserve to have those finishes every week. Momentum at this level isn’t fake; our top-five finish last weekend puts us on the right side of practice and qualifying for Texas, which we haven’t had yet this season. We’re continuing to work hard and focus on our execution to get these results every week.”

Corey Day, driver of the No. 17 Chevrolet, on carrying momentum from a win at Talladega Superspeedway to Texas Motor Speedway: “This past weekend at Talladega [Superspeedway] was a dream come true. I couldn’t have asked for a better team to help get me to my first victory lane. We’re really excited to build on the momentum and I’m looking forward to heading back to Texas [Motor Speedway]. All of the tracks that I’ve gotten to go back to for a second or third time, I’ve had pretty good success at. As new as I am to this it’s really beneficial for me to have laps in the No. 17 HENDRICKCARS.COM Chevrolet at tracks. Texas was great last year for my second NOAPS start. I love the mile-and-a-half style of racing; the throttle time is my favorite.”

Wood Brothers Racing – Race Week Briefing: Texas Motor Speedway

Event: Würth 400
Date/Time: Sunday, May 3, 2026, 3:30 p.m. ET
Location: Texas Motor Speedway, Fort Worth, Texas
Layout: 1.5-Mile Oval
TV/Radio: FS1, PRN, SiriusXM NASCAR Radio

As the Würth 400 takes center stage at Texas Motor Speedway, Josh Berry’s No. 21 Ford Mustang Dark Horse will carry the same Würth look on track, with the Würth Group – a global leader in assembly and fastening materials – featured across both the race and the car.

Texas Motor Speedway, a 1.5-mile oval near Fort Worth, is one of several intermediate tracks on the NASCAR Cup Series schedule, but its layout presents a unique challenge with two distinctly different ends of the track.

“Texas itself is definitely very unique,” Berry said. “Both ends of the track are so much different.

“[Turns] One and Two is a good bit less banking and kind of a more disciplined-based corner in a way. It’s easy to get high, easy to get out of line.

“Then Three and Four is just hammer down, but obviously you have that bump to navigate through off of Four, so it’s definitely a very interesting place.

“It’s a unique mile-and-a-half for sure.”

Berry will make his third NASCAR Cup Series start at Texas this weekend as the Wood Brothers Racing team looks to bounce back after getting caught in an accident at Talladega Superspeedway.

Practice for the Würth 400 is set for Saturday at 12:30 p.m. ET, followed by qualifying at 1:40 p.m. ET, with coverage on Prime Video.

Sunday’s 267-lap, 400.5-mile race is scheduled to take the green flag just after 3:30 p.m. ET with television coverage on FS1. Stage 1 is set to end at Lap 80, with Stage 2 concluding at Lap 165.

Saturday, May 2

Berry will sign autographs at the Team Penske/Wood Brothers merchandise hauler beginning at 2:10 p.m. local time in the Texas Motor Speedway fan zone. 100 wristbands will be distributed on a first come, first-served basis.
